The mighty Queen undiscovered vault is a treasure trove even Indiana Jones couldn't find. Recently I came across this demo from the Sheer Heart Attack outtakes. Here are the lyrics.

Take me to see an epic Take me to the best thing of all I want you to take me, take me Take me to the Ball

The wine will flow and spill We'll converse in foreign tongue Partying on and on until we're ill Having the time of our lives While we're young Swinging from chandeliers with skill A massive masquerade of fun At the greatest show of them all Take me to the Ball

Gladrags, fancy bags and nomads The waifs and strays are welcome Exotic meets frantic merging into erotic Pirates will have champagne and toffs rum Socialites will rise and fall at the Ball

Take me to see Ben-Hur Take me to best of all I want you to take me, take me Take me to the Ball

As regards the song the tune in my head when I "composed" the lyrics was Now I'm Here, hence the Sheer Heart Attack connection. Sometime soon I will get round to putting music to these Dylanesque words. I'm sure you will want to hear the finished article. :-)
